  • Creating QA cycles for production bugs
  • Monitoring NPS to drive development on new features
  • Tier 3 escalation support

11/2015 - 02/2017, Technical Support Lead, Lily Robotics, San Francisco, CA

Joining the team prior to launch, it was my duty to plan and implement a support system ready to handle a brand new experience while testing the product for usability and performance. My focus then expanded to planning and executing on both an alpha and beta hardware testing program. The responsibilities of this role included:

  • Email support
  • Support process and strategies planning
  • Order management

This role had me at the intersection of our upstate support center and NYC based engineering team. The goal was to leverage the experience of real end users, and those who supported them, to generate quality improvements system-wide. My work included:

  • Developing troubleshooting strategies
  • Providing advanced system-level technical support
  • Product and service training
  • Case escalation management
  • Product QA testing
  • User data analysis
  • Beta product support
10/2014 - 02/2015, Tier 2 Technical Support Representative, Wink, Schenectady, NY

Following Wink's launch, I was transitioned to their dedicated technical support team and gained additional mobility in troubleshooting. In depth knowledge of home networking moved to the forefront and the focus on creative troubleshooting sharpened. My priorities shifted towards:

  • Adaptive troubleshooting
  • Long term user issue resolution
  • Technical support via social media
